Today, i.e. on 26th July, Kargil Day is celebrated. This day is dedicated to the heroes who sacrificed their lives for the country in commemoration of the Kargil war of 1999 and the success of Operation Vijay. This bravery has also been presented well on the big screen. Be it the border or LOC Kargil. The fearlessness of the soldiers of the country has been saluted in the films. But do you know about that film, which showed the LOC Kargil war with 33 actors. However, the audience did not like this film and the film proved to be a flop at the box office. 

 

We are talking about the multi-starrer film LOC Kargil with 33 actors, which was released in 2003. The film was directed by JP Dutta, who is known for war films. The duration of the film was 4 hours 15 minutes, which is counted among the longest films. The story of the film was based on the victory of the Kargil war by the Indian Army, but despite all efforts, it could not perform well at the box office. The situation was such that the film collected only 31 crores in a budget of 33 crores. 

 

 

 

 

 

Sanjay Dutt, Ajay Devgan, Saif Ali Khan, Sunil Shetty, Abhishek Bachchan, Nagarjuna, Akshay Khanna, Manoj Bajpayee, Ashutosh Rana, Sudesh Berry, Raj Babbar, Mohnish Bahl and Avtar Gill were seen in important roles in the film. While Rani Mukherjee, Kareena Kapoor, Raveena Tandon and Esha Deol were also important parts of the film. However, despite this big star cast, the film proved to be a disaster. The film received negative reviews after its release. The reason for the film's flop was said to be the duration of the film. 

After the flop of LOC Kargil, the careers of actors like Puru Rajkumar, Shahzad Khan, Amar Upadhyay, Bikram Saluja, Vineet Sharma, Karan Nath, Armaan Kohli, Deepak Jethi, Priya Gill, Akanksha Malhotra and Akbar Naqvi came to a halt. Some are still working. However, they did not achieve success. However, today when this film comes on TV, the audience likes to watch it with great enthusiasm.
